Okay, so, right, I come home tonight, and I'm chatting, and catching up on LJ, answering comments, reading email, blah blah blah. And just before I decide to go to bed, I check my school email.

And I've gotten an email from the Honors Director, saying that I should come to a meeting next week, because I've been nominated to apply for the Rhodes and Marshall Scholarships.

...

*dies*

I could go to OXFORD.

*dies*

On a random tangent, this reminds me of when I was little, and I heard of Rhodes Scholars, but thought it was *Roads* and so I had this idea that they were people who traveled from college to college, always traveling, always on the road. 8-year-old me thought Clinton sounded much cooler that way. #^^#

OMG I AM SO EXCITED I CANNOT STOP BOUNCING.

I assume so, yeah. That's what the meeting I have to go to Thursday is about. And, yanno, I'm aware of how small my chances of actually getting the scholarship are, but I don't care. Because, yanno, just that I got to *apply* for it is teh cool.

(And hee, yes. I is an ickle baby.)

DAMN, that's amazing. Good luck!!

And you were *8*! I'm not the sort who wallows in feeling old, but damn, that makes me feel OLD (I was 19 in 1992).

And heh, I know. I always feel so much younger than the majority of people I know. I need to grow up faster, damnit!
